Clicking on a live link in a LO 5.1 Presentation results in the
following error message:

"LibreOffice could not find a web browser on your system. Please check
your Desktop Preferences or install a web browser (for example, Firefox)

In fact Firefox is set as default and doing a command click on a link
from Writer works fine.

 From looking at the code (shell/source/unix/exec/shellexec.cxx, 
sfx2/source/appl/openuriexternally.cxx) that error message can 
misleadingly be presented also when a browser /is/ found, but something 
else goes wrong when trying to open the hyperlink with the browser.

This happens, for example with a link like "htp://www....", i.e. a wrong protocol identifier.
